Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 5 large russet potatoes
  • 2 lemons juiced
  • 4 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 2/4 cup water
  • sea salt, pepper, and dried oregano to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric optional

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 425 °F.
  • Scrub and peel potatoes well under water and slice into wedges, try to keep them all similar thickness/size so they cook evenly.
  • Add sliced potatoes to a large glass baking dish or a casserole dish will do. Make sure the potatoes fit in a single layer.
  • Add over top: water, lemon juice, olive oil and all seasonings. Mix together with a wooden spoon or hands to make sure potatoes are evenly coated.
  • Cover the baking dish with tin foil and bake for 30 minutes with tin foil, then uncovered for approx. 15 minutes until golden. Stick potatoes to confirm when they’re done.
